Chapter 233 (Part 1)
Chapter 233: National Prestige (Part 1)
“As of this moment, I, ‘Gustavo,’ declare an end to my dictatorship and surrender to the ‘Black Scythe.’ The slave system is abolished, and all restrictions on communication, trade routes, and other suppressions will be lifted. I pledge never to appear before the public again, as an act of penance for my past actions.”
An unbelievable scene played out on the TV screen that had remained dark until now.
The dictator Gustavo, who had held Mexico under his thumb, announced that he would step down voluntarily.
He even apologized.
“Is this… real?”
“That looks like his real face, but…”
“Is he lying to trick us again?”
People were too afraid to believe it so easily.
Would a monster who had ruled through terror really give up his power so easily?
But it didn’t take long for their doubts to turn into belief.
Not only was TV broadcasting normally again, but communication and the internet were active, and families who had been dragged away like slaves returned home.
